The Wilds I Walk

Favourite spot at the moment for great walks, off the West Highland Way near Drymen. With Gemma the Cocker Spaniel on the lead, Skye the Collie, Alfa the German Wired Haired Pointer, Jude the Lab’ and my two Viszlas Holly and Ivy. We’ve had winter there for the past three weeks or so with snow over the ankles. The season is a changing and we were back to good old fashioned West of Scotland conditions of low grey cloud, drizzle and a temperature struggling to get above 10 degrees. Explored a new path today, and was pleased that all the dogs responded well to a rider on horseback (shot into the forest away from them)…. hoorah!!! Welcomed the “new girl” Alfa as well who fitted in a treat, while having a ball exploring the woods., She made me feel good too by always coming back when called.

A Wild Side Blog


Trying my hand at a Blog for the first time. We were up near Drymen today enjoying what felt like a change in the season. It’s been cold for so long now that I’d almost forgotten what it felt like when the temperature rose into double figures. The snow has all but melted off the paths we’ve been taking of late, but Gemma still got a roll about in the odd patch or three. Vito found every Stygian patch of bog, stretch of mud, length of puddle and the odd stream to cool himself off. Afraid the star of the show today was another Viszla (gaspers!), the 13 week old Boris who stole the show on cuteness.

Testimonials

Cannot recommend Jacqui and wild side walks enough. My rescue Pom Parker has been walking with her and her pack for 6 years now and loves her and his walks. I have had the privilege of joining a few walk and it’s always truly fabulous seeing these dogs together having THEE best time, so well behaved and Jacqui 100% in control as pack leader.
